An explanation of web hosting

The most elemental and widely used form of web hosting is the shared web hosting solution. It represents a means to host your site without having to be much informed about programming and administrating a server. Besides, it's also the most inexpensive type of hosting and it's very affordable for everyone. Nonetheless, what is shared website hosting?

What is shared web page hosting?

As the name indicates, the shared web site hosting service is a type of service where lots of customers share the system resources of one and the same server. This implies that all hosting server components like CPU, hard disks, RAM, NICs and so on, are apportioned among the users whose accounts are on that same web server. This is mainly made feasible by setting up separate accounts for the different users and assigning certain restrictions and resource usage quotas for each of them. Those restrictions are appointed in order to hinder the clients from interfering with each other's accounts and, of course, to hinder the server from overburdening. Usually, shared web space hosting clients do not have complete root access to the web hosting server's configuration files, which primarily goes to say that they cannot access anything else on the server but their own personal shared web hosting account. The web space hosting features that each account may avail of are set by the hosting provider that owns the web hosting server and by the particular website hosting plan. That predetermines the second essential question:

How are the shared hosting servers shared among the users?

Web hosting corporations that supply shared webspace hosting packages typically have various website hosting plans. Those packages provide diverse amounts of hosting features and specifications, which actually set the limitations that a web hosting package will have. The customer may select between the separate web hosting plans and sign up for the one that he believes will fit him best. The webspace hosting package will then determine what limitations the client's account will involve, once opened. The costs and the specs of the site hosting packages are set by the specific web hosting provider. Based on the policy of the company, the shared web page hosting service falls into two categories - the free hosting solution and the standard shared service, currently very famous among "cPanel hosting" merchandisers as a cloud web hosting one. It's impossible to say, which one is more preferable, since they are very different from one another and they actually are determined by the marketing policy of the particular firm and, of course, the demands of the particular user.

What is the difference between the free and the classic shared webspace hosting solution?

Of course, the major difference between the free and the paid solution is in the quantity of resources that they contain. Free web space hosting suppliers are not able to maintain a big number of web servers, hence, they plainly host more users on a single web server by lowering the amount of resources offered by the accounts. This will be effective only in case the web hosting servers are supervised and maintained properly, because the great number of accounts may cause the hosting server to crash on a regular basis. Most of the free webspace hosting firms, however, neglect the quality of the service and hence, it's very hard to come across a free of cost web space hosting service that's in fact worth the time. The top free hosting firms usually provide free customer support even to the free webspace hosting clients, because they want their web portals to grow bigger so that they subsequently migrate to a paid website hosting plan, which includes more website hosting resources. One such supplier, for instance, is FreeHostia.com, which is among the biggest and oldest free hosting distributors in the world.

At the same time, traditional shared web hosting vendors such as Supreme Hosting, for instance, are able to maintain plenty of hosting servers and so, they may afford to offer much more feature-rich webspace hosting plans. Of course, that reflects on the cost of the web hosting packages. Paying a higher price for a site hosting service, however, does not necessarily mean that this solution has a finer quality. The best solutions are the balanced ones, which offer a fee that matches the concrete service which you're receiving. The first-class hosting vendors that have been around for a long time are showing their price tags and plan features in a realistic fashion, so that the client may acquainted with what in fact he is receiving. What's more, some of these provide a free bonus with the web hosting package, such as the 1-click applications installer, complemented with 100's of fee-free web page skins that are provided by 'Supreme Hosting'. Such webspace hosting firms do care about their good name and this is the reason why if you choose them, you can be assured that you won't get fooled into paying for a package that you cannot in fact use.

What should I anticipate from a shared web hosting service?

The shared web site hosting service is best for persons who desire to host a basic website, which is going to generate a small or medium amount of web traffic each month. You cannot anticipate, however, that a shared web space hosting account will be sufficient for your needs, since as your business grows, your web page will become more and more demanding. Hence, you will have to ultimately migrate to a more powerful web space hosting solution such as a semi-dedicated server, a VPS (a.k.a. a private virtual server, or VPS), or why not a dedicated server. So, when choosing a hosting supplier, you should also consider how they can be of service to you, or else you might end up transferring your domain name manually to a separate supplier, which can bring about website predicaments and even extended downtime for your web portal. Therefore, selecting a webspace hosting company like 'Supreme Hosting', which can supply you with the required domain name and hosting services as you grow bigger, is vital and will save you a lot of headaches in the long run.
